15 month old will only drink milk from a bottle

Hi, I have a 15 month old daughter who will not drink milk in anything but a bottle. We're down to two bottles a day (8 oz in the morning at night), just to make sure she gets her minimum milk intake. She'll drink everything else out of a sippy cup or regular cup. We've tried flavoring the milk and using non-see through cups (so she can't see the color - yes, she looks). She'll take a sip or two, realize it's milk and refuse it. I've read the articles about not rushing them, so I don't want to push it immediately, but any suggestions as she gets older and still refuses milk out of anything but a bottle?
